If your father or husband is a DIYer like my husband, then he probably has a lot of tool boxes. But, does he have a great tool bag? Veto Pro Pac tool bags are the best quality for the money, and they can replace many of those tool boxes your man has.

Veto Pro Pac Tool Bags are tough, rugged, heavy, waterproof, and hold a lot of tools so it can be used on any job. You can help get your man organized.

My husband and I got to review the Veto Pro Pac Closed Top LC and (Open Top) OT- XL bags. Henry loves them both. He can't stop talking about how well made they are.

The picture above shows the items before he packed the Veto Pro Pac Closed Top LC bag. He does a lot of different things, including his own welding business, working on vehicles, and working around the house.

This shows how everything has a place and there's a place for everything Henry wanted to put in the bag. He was amazed how much this bag can hold. I think there was room for more than he put in it.

This shows what he put inside the center of the bag.

This Army bag is what he carried on his Four-Wheeler prior to getting the Veto Pro Pac LC Closed Top Bag.

Above, the Veto Pro Pac LC has 51 tiered and six zippered pockets, waiting to be filled up with tools to give you easy access. Specs are 19" H X 13.5" L X 9.5"W (13" H with handle folded down. Cost is $129.95.

The Veto Pro Pac OT-XL tool bag below, is just as great. It's heavy duty for a pro to carry to the job site or a DIYer to use forever and not have to replace. It has 40 tiered and four zippered pockets. Cost is $179.95. A smaller version of this bag is available.

There's a lot of room for tools. And since it's open, it's easy access. Saving time, saves money.

Specs are 18" H X 16.5" L X 9.5" W (12" H with handle folded down. You can see that the pockets are tiered for the tools to be placed where you can find them easily.

Henry shows how large the zipper is so you can see it's heavy duty. It works easily, too.

The LC caters to the more job-specific crowd. With 57 pockets capable of handling 75 hand tools. It's constructed from bomb-proof pvc-impregnated 1800 denier and bottomed off with a 3mm thick polypropylene bottom. An outside-mounted tape measure clip is a favorite feature of the bag. And are you ready? These bags have ergonomic handles and a five-year warranty.

The OT-XL has a capacity to hold over 75 hand tools. Top-in loading and unloading allows for grab and go. They're made of pvc-impregnated 1800 denier waterproof nylon bodies and 3mm thick polypropylene bases

Both of us agree that these bags are well worth the money. We have spent a lot on tools and on tool boxe,s so we have some knowledge to base this on.
